multi dimensional arrays

[ameliabob]

Do the list and each functions work with multidimensional arrays? $families = array ( "Griffin"=>array ( "Peter", "Lois", "Megan" ), "Quagmire"=>array ( "Glenn", "Fred", "Melissa" ), "Brown"=>array ( "Cleveland", "Loretta", "Junior" ) ); Given this array what would " echo (each($families)); " will display each of the family names.Is there a function that allows me to see the second level? while (list($first,$second,$third) = each($families){ echo("First born is ".$first." next is ".$second);}

each returns both the keys and values: http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.each.php The key is the family name, the value is the array. You can loop through that array or use list with it if you want to, it's a normal array.
